"Midnight in Paris is a wonderful love letter to Paris", declared Festival director Thierry Frémaux in a press release. "It’s a film in which Woody Allen takes a deeper look at the issues raised in his last films: our relationship with history, art, pleasure and life. His 41st feature reveals once again his inspiration."

The film finds Wilson in a love treiangle with Rachel McAdams and Marion Cotillard, which is nice work if you can get it.
